CHARDHAM YATRA WITH GJH INDIA

Chardham Yatra in Uttarakhand is one of the most popular pilgrimage (or tirth yatra) in Hinduism. Devotees aspire to visit this holy char dham pilgrimage once in a life time. Chardham Yatra is the holiest of pilgrimages in Hindu religion. The four holy shrines of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri are covered in the yatra. These divine oasis are situated within the Garwhal region of Uttarakhand state in North India.

Chardham Yatra, as the name suggests, is the sacred journey to the four most important religious destinations in India. Char Dham conveys the presence of four sacred abodes. But it has a got a great significance in Hindu religion. Char Dham originally used to refer to a pilgrimage circuit encompassing four holiest sites which were located at four directions of India - Badrinath, Puri, Rameshwaram and Dwarka. They were established by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century AD. A relatively smaller circuit of Hindu pilgrimage is formed by the four hallowed places of Indian Himalayas, which are also known as Chota Char Dham. 'Chota' means small in Hindi. Alternately called Char Dham of Himalayas or Char Dham of Uttarakhand, the revered group possesses four sacred sites - Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamnotri.

There are three major sects in Hinduism - Shaivism, Vaishnavism and Shaktism. The Char Dham of India consists of three Vishnava locations (Dwarka, Badrinath and Puri) and one Shaiva (Rameshwaram). Below are the details of these four shrines which are collectively known as the Chardham and journey to these shrines are known as Chardham Darshan or Chardham Yatra.

Kedarnath Dham: Kedarnath Dham, located in the Rudraprayag district of Uttarakhand, is one of the most paramount locations for worshipers of Shiva. The air appears to be reverberating with the name of Lord Shiva amid the mighty snow-clad peaks, enchanting meadows and forests of the lower mountain range of Himalayas. Situated in a breathtaking location, near the source of Mandakini River and at the height of 3,584 meters, Kedarnath Dham celebrates the greatness of Lord Shiva. Kedarnath temple is one of the 12 Jyotir Lingams and is also the most important temple among the Panch Kedars (group of 5 Shiva temples in Garhwal Himalayas). It is also one of the significant temples of the sacred Chota Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand, raising the glory of the place to further heights.
